Our Story

Muriel, our mother & nana, was a 70's era ‘back to the land’-er who grew her own vegetables & bought meat & raw milk from the farmer down the road. She was also a hand-knitter who produced one-of-a-kind creations that we still use today.  

We inherited Muriel's work ethic, commitment to local agriculture, & love of quality knitwear sourcing luxurious fiber from small New England farmers, using regional processors to turn it into yarn, applying advanced manufacturing technology to knit, & then hand finishing each garment right here in Vermont.

We do it to honor New England, Mother Earth, & of course, Muriel.

Our commitment to place

Local farms are the backbone of Vermont...

We started Muriel's with the purpose of creating unique, timeless knits and protecting our home. We source our wool from farmers like Dave Martin. When we buy wool from Dave and other local farmers, we give them an important source of revenue and help keep Vermont farmed.

...and they're saving the world.

Dave and our other farmer partners engage in regenerative agricultural practices that rebuild soil organic matter and restore biodiversity. This results in carbon sequestering and combats climate change, which helps to save our planet.

Always sustainably sourced.

We sustainably source our other fibers as well and use all-natural dyes, post-consumer recycled paper packaging, & renewable power. Because our home is so worth protecting.   


Our Process

Cyrus designs our styles on a computer software then programs his Shima Seiki wholegarment knitting machines, which knit entire garments in one piece. No linking or sewing is required; this reduces the labor required & virtually eliminates waste. We also reduce waste by knitting garments on demand so we don't have excess inventory. This is what slow fashion looks like.  


Our Team

What started as a family affair has grown as we work to keep up with requests from our lovely customers for more sweaters! The team includes Cyrus, Laura, Tia (our summer 2023 intern) & Meg, of Moonspinners LLC.
